Concrete/Bricks Waste Removal

Disposing of concrete and bricks from construction products should be done properly. At Best Price Skip Bins, we have the right solutions to help you choose the type of skip you need. There are many types of building material, especially from older properties, and each needs to be dealt with correctly.

Whatever the size of your demolition job, you are likely to produce an uprising amount of concrete and brick waste. It usually surprises people just how much material goes into the smallest construction. With the right type of skip bin, you can deal with all these waste products efficiently.

Ins and Outs

When it comes to building materials, there is sometimes jargon which people find confusing. To explain what the terms mean, these are lists of what you should and should not dispose of along with concrete and bricks:

Terminology

At Best Price Skip Bins, we provide two types of bins to dispose of concrete, bricks and other building materials. You can book a Concrete/Bricks skip bin, or a Mixed Heavy Waste skip bin.

Cleanfill and hardfill are building terms which often confuse people. They are in fact the same thing, and also known as clean hard fill. As these are terms used in the building trade, they refer to what can be done with the material.

Hard fill is a term used to differentiate materials from general waste. This usually means concrete and bricks, but also refers to ceramic tiles and rock or stone. As these can be ground down and used in future building projects, they need to be collected separately.

The term clean fill means that the hard material is uncontaminated by other types of waste. This is why it is so important to keep waste products separate when carrying out demolition or construction work.

If a clean hard fill skip bin is taken to a processing plant with items of general waste among it, this causes problems. As the hard fill is ground down, plastics and other materials contaminate processing material and possibly the final product.

At Best Price Skip Bins, we simply just call these terms Concrete and Bricks so there is no confusion about the waste type.

Heavy Waste

As well as our Concrete/Brick skip bins, we offer the option of Mixed Heavy Waste skips. These give you the option to dispose of concrete and other building materials as well as many other waste types in the one bin.

As with the clean hard fill bins, you must not include any hazardous materials or food products.

The Mixed Heavy Waste bin gives great flexibility to dispose of the heaviest items you are likely to need to get rid of. Each type of waste will be properly dealt with and recycled wherever possible.
